Hi there,

I know that I haven't blogged for quite a long time, I haven't been very well over the past few weeks, I have had some ups and downs but am feeling better recently. Never underestimate the power of positive thought such as positive affirmations, but you need to apply these before your state of mind gets to the stage where you cannot apply these things. Looking on the positive side I have nearly finished my plumbing course. I have got an exam this evening which is the last one, and then a practical assignment next week which involves stripping a bathroom out along with the pipework, and then putting it all back together from scratch. I will then be looking for another course to do to occupy my time, and to take my mind off things. I don't fancy anything to do with construction, because it is too blokey bloke. I fancy doing a health and beauty course, because there will be plenty of nice women to talk to.

I have also joined a gym on off peak membership, it only costs me £22 per month, and the only time I can't use it is first thing in the morning and in the evenings on week days, but I will be able to attend regularly because I work part time, and would be able to go during the day on Mondays and Wednesdays, and weekends of course. Keeping fit is helping alot to make me feel better, and I am also meditation every morning which is good for the mind too. So things are looking up.
